CBT - Psychological Disorder & Drug/Alcohol Rehabilitation Treatment
Cognitive
Behavior Therapy (CBT) is structured, focused therapy resembling
education, coaching or tutoring. It focuses on the present and future
rather than the past. CBT combines Behavior Therapy (designed
to weaken the connections between troublesome situations and your habitual
reactions to them) and Cognitive Therapy (which teaches how
certain thinking patterns cause symptoms by giving you a distorted picture of
what is going on).

and is the preferred psychological disorder and drug or alcohol addiction treatment
for such conditions as:
- Chronic anxiety and worry

- Post-traumatic stress symptoms
- Problems with your marriage or other current relationships
